Ootirtesy in driving haft been the subject of many active campaigns. It is susceptible of equal emphasis in the matter of parking although it never has been stressed in this respect, according to Charles M. Hayes, president of the Chicago Motor Club, who points out that showing consideration for other motorists will go a long way toward solving the problem of trying to find a place to leave one's car. "The parking problem is one of the most acute the motorist faces," says Mr. Hayes. "It formerly was true only in the large centers, but now even the business district of the small community is offering a perplexing problem to the motorist who needs a place to leave his car while shopping. "If every motorist simply could and would be fenselfiah about utilizing the available parking spac^, it would be of great advantage to his fellow car owners. Parallel and angle parking offer vital differences in this respect as every motorist probably already knows. • "If a driver uses, more space than is necessary when parking parallel it is possible for another to push tho car forward or backward in order to get into any remaining space. Touching the car of another, however, Is illegal in many cities. "Angle parking usually represents an enormous waste, merely because motorists do not use it to the best advantage. In a survey conducted by the American Automobile Ass'n. in many large cities recently, it was found than an average of 10 parking places in each block were not available simply because those cars already parked had taken much more room than was necessary."
